Our ship is listing badly and Obama will put the final torpedo in us if he gets a second chance. Like it or not, the citizens of this country CANNOT afford to put the future of our country in jeopardy by not voting or voting for a third party. Despite our desire for the perfect candidate, this isn't a luxury we can afford. We HAVE to stop the bleeding! Unless I am totally blind, Romney will be nominated as the Republican candidate and any third party candidate will in all likelihood be spoilers taking votes away from Romney. Things are in motion as we all know to begin putting constitutionally qualified and Constitution loving candidates into office at the local, state and national levels. The task ahead will be painful as we rebuild one step at a time. But it MUST be done. We will have plenty of opportunity to exert influence over Romney and his administration. Remember, there will be new Tea Party candidates in office who know they must toe the line. They know that citizens are ANGRY and ULTRA alert to political shenanigans of any kind. Let's get Obama OUT of office (and ideally in prison where he belongs) and hold our new congress and President feet to the bonfire.
